Zuo Qian held the phone in her hand for a long time and flipped through it, but she still couldn't make up her mind to make the call.
Should he fight or not? If he called and asked the official question, how should he continue? Should they talk about other topics? Or should he just hang up? Wouldn't it be annoying if he was long-winded? With her strong personality, she should be very annoyed by others harassing her…But, but that number was in her hand. Wouldn't it be a shame if she didn't call? Moreover, she did have something important to ask.
Zuo Qian thought about it and poured herself a few glasses of water. She drank until her stomach was bloated. She closed her eyes and told herself that she should just take it as she was full! Hence, Zuo Qian dialed Chi Zhen's phone number. This was the number that Chi Zhen had given to every contestant who had advanced to the top ten during the competition. She said that if they had any questions about the competition, they could call her. Although she had a cold face, no one would dare to call and harass her.
Zuo Qian was probably the only one with thick skin.
After dialing Chi Zhen's phone number, Zuo Qian's heart was beating fast. She wanted to say that a busy person like Chi Zhen would take a long time to pick up the call and that she could take this opportunity to prepare her lines. In the end, the call was picked up after only one ring. Zuo Qian's heart jumped as she heard Chi Zhen's voice ring softly in her ear.
"Hello, who is it?"
"…Ah…Is it Ikebana?”Zuo Qian hated herself for being so gutless, her voice trembling.
"Yes, Zuo Qian, what is it?"
"How…how did you hear it?" Zuo Qian was surprised.”
Chi Zhen smiled faintly." I'm in this line of work. I'm very sensitive to sound. Of course I can tell."”
Zuo Qian's heartbeat had yet to return to normal when Chi Zhen added,""Moreover, when your pronunciation reaches a certain level, no one will forget it.”
This time, Zuo Qian finally understood. She was the kind of person who kept complaining in her heart, while Chi Zao Zao directly said it in front of her face. However, Zuo Qian did not feel disgusted at all when she ridiculed her. Although she was speechless every time, she had an indescribable feeling in her heart-Chi Zhen's words were always so authoritative and correct, even when she ridiculed her.
Of course, Zuo Qian did not have the time or energy to feel how paranoid she was.
"I just…wanted to ask, um, how many days will the finals take?”After all, the company only gave her ten days of leave, and she had already used more than half of it. If she could not return to work within the stipulated time, she would be fired.
"Well, there are a few rounds of the finals, and it's going to be broadcast live on TV. I reckon it'll take at least a month.”
"A month…then…"
"Is there a conflict with your working hours?”
"I think so."
At this moment, Chi Zhen was sitting in the courtyard of the villa by the sea, lying on a long wooden chair. Her eyes were half-closed as she enjoyed the gentle sea breeze. The collar of her white shirt was blown up, and she looked rather relaxed. Her mood was gradually improving.
"Zuo Qian, are you willing to take a gamble?”
"Bet?"
"Since you've already entered the top ten, why don't you just take a gamble? If you win, you can sign a contract with us. We will also focus on packaging you and release an album for you. 100,000 in cash will be enough for you to squander for the time being. If you lose, you'll just resign from your job as a manager's assistant. Moreover, this experience will definitely increase your experience, courage, and temperament. Do the math yourself. Which path is more cost-effective?”
Zuo Qian fell silent.
"I believe you can make the right judgment.”
After hanging up the phone, Zuo Qian sat quietly on the sofa and recalled Chi Zhen's words. Let's take a gamble, shall we? Her father had put all his eggs in one basket in the business world and ended up in such a miserable state. He had dragged his wife into prison and made his daughter bear a debt that she could not pay off. Gambling was a moment of impulse, but the consequences could be unimaginable.
Zuo Qian collapsed on the sofa and looked at the open wooden door that led to the balcony in the living room. The house she rented was on the third floor and there was a tree outside the balcony. The tender leaves of the tree were blooming and gradually growing into a lush tree under the sunlight…
Cypress Group, Ye family.
The Ye family's mansion was surrounded by bodyguards no matter what day it was. There weren't many guests, but every time there were guests, they could feel that the Ye family was really sinister.
However, the Yin Qi was indeed very heavy.
The head of the Ye family, Ye Qian, was in his early fifties and had nine children. His wife had passed away early, so he had been focusing his entire life on the development of the cypress group. It was not until his fourth son, Ye Si, died in a gang fight a few years ago that he gradually calmed down and handed over the cypress group to his children to take care of, and he went around leisurely like a wild crane.
Therefore, the parents of the Ye family were not at home all year round. Although Second and Third Ye were in charge now, the decision of all important matters still rested with First Ye.
"Are you going to live in a group apartment? " About this…" Although it was early spring and the weather was getting warmer, Ye Yi was still wrapped in a blanket after she got out of bed. She still felt cold." Have you asked your second sister for her opinion?"”
Ye Jiu drank a few more bottles of Ye Yi's top-grade Da Hong Pao. Finally, he sighed deeply and said,""Second Sister, that stubborn old man. If she agrees, I won't come looking for you.”
Ye Yi sighed in his heart. No wonder…
This morning, Ye Er went to Ye Yi's room and brought her breakfast-a bowl of porridge.
Ye Yi said that his hair was a little messy. It was getting longer and it was troublesome to take care of it.
"Then wouldn't it be fine if Sister cut it off?"
Ye Yi sat on a wide wooden chair. Ye Er went behind her and held her shoulder. When he looked up, her and Ye Yi's faces were reflected in the big mirror at the same time. Ye Yi had been losing weight very quickly recently. His complexion was not good and he was eating less and less. He had only finished half of the bowl of porridge from yesterday…
"Er, don't you like big sister's long hair?”Ye Yi did not turn around. He only looked at Ye Er in the mirror, his beautiful eyes smiling like crescents.
Ye Er lowered his head and avoided Ye Yi's smile.""Then I'll help Sister coil it up."
"Sorry to trouble you, Second."
Ye Er had often helped Ye Yi tie up his long hair since he was young, and his movements were already very agile.
"Second, do you have something on your mind?" Ye Yi suddenly asked.
"…Why did Sister suddenly ask this?”
Ye One's gaze never left Ye Er's face in the mirror."Haven't you noticed? You're the kind of person who can't hide anything in your heart. As long as there's something in your heart, even if you don't say it out loud, your brows will speak for your mouth…Your brows haven't relaxed since you entered the door.”
"Sister is so powerful, can't you guess it? Why do you still have to ask me?”
"Second, you've become mischievous and know how to refute me.”
Ye Er was speechless.
So Second Brother is worrying about our Ninth Young Lady again.
Ye Yi wrapped the blanket tighter and said to Ye Jiu, who was sitting in front of her and continuing to make tea,""Did your second sister nag you?"
Ye Jiu's face sank, and he casually poured away the Da Hong Pao that had only been soaked twice, saying,""She's too long-winded. Every time something happens, she'll be worried about her gains and losses as if it's the end of the world. She'll hold a knife and wave it in front of Xiaojiu. Xiaojiu isn't afraid that she'll cut Xiaojiu, she's afraid that Xiaojiu won't be able to resist snatching the knife and cutting her…"
Ye Jiu's LOLI accent came out again. Although her stoic face didn't change much, Ye Yi couldn't hold his smile any longer.""Little Jiu, you poured tens of thousands of yuan out of me in one afternoon, and you even said that you wanted to chop my sister up.”
"Little Jiu is also your sister, big sister.”
Ye Yi smiled helplessly." I have too many sisters. All of them are so willful. I'm really troubled. I still want to live a few more years…"
"Second Sister even let Seventh Sister participate in Dream. Isn't this a live surveillance?”
"That was for your safety. With your status, can you do it without someone protecting you? Your seventh sister is proficient in all kinds of martial arts and is the best candidate to protect you. You should know that your second sister has put in a lot of effort for you.”
"Big sister, you can't be so biased.”
"Biased? When have I been biased?"
"Do you still want to deny it? Everyone with the surname Ye knows how biased you are towards Second Sister. I'm your sister too. You can't ignore me crying in the corner.”
"Ninth Young Lady, are you trying to provoke your Eldest Sister?”
"Naturally."
"Very good." Ye Yi revealed that unfathomable and flawless smile again." Miss Jiu, you've really grown up. Alright, your goading method has succeeded. I'll let you see that I treat my younger brothers and sisters equally. I'm not biased towards anyone.”
Ye Jiu was stunned for a moment. He didn't say anything and walked out of Ye Yi's office.
Standing in the corridor, Ye Jiu looked at the spring scenery outside the window and sighed deeply.""Second Sister, you're in a tragedy."
